#airtag #stolen #cops
The guy in the white shirt went to warn somebody in the smaller building who took off behind the bigger house as you were talking to cop and woman.
Nice work Investigator!! Holy shit, you’re right, I didnt even see that when editing the video! Thanks 🙏
@KevinJones-uv3mf
What is the time stamp on that please?? I can’t find it!!
It's right when they 1st get to the property watch to the right of the small building
12:20
I bet if it was cops property stolen, the whole force would be on it
The man and woman that live there are guilty as hell, there’s no way they didn’t know what’s going on.
I agree
They could have known but both were older and more than likely are afraid that the thieves will harm them.
@@Annielee2023I doubt the thief would hurt them. I guarantee their son is more than likely the prime suspect and they were just covering for him. Someone ran out the back of that shed while they were talking to the woman.
@@Annielee2023 Most likely the thieves are paying them to use their place to bring the stuff.
Plus they went in the car ? Dodgy old ones
That’s crazy I am a retired state trooper. I would have applied for a search warrant for that whole property inside and out and I would have got it. The air tag proves it was stolen and taken to this property. My investigators would have had a field day with these crack head scumbags.
I have a feeling we will be going back one day, better prepared
@@TheRealMrDiGG- It's never too late to file other charges or get a search warrant if it's not a closed case (keep all Police case numbers)... Don't give up!
That crooked area may have surveillance cameras of their own set up, be careful. Best you have surveillance cameras on your property as well. Also take pics and engrave your name/date of birth/phone number on all your property, mark it inside or out on each item. It's a big help besides having the AirTags.
Thank you
Thank you for your service…and awesome comment
And this is just the reason these a holes get away with their stealing. They need to be held accountable. Even with your airtag and they say nothing can be done??? Totally unexceptable!!!
Time for justice to be served the old fashioned way!
I agree!
@Kyle-gb9dq obviously that 1st night in prison isn't working. FIGHT or F and usually it's BOTH 🤣🤣🤣
Just thinking the same thing. The cops admit they get calls all the time but they do nothing but protect the criminals.
@@Freedom17762they’re to busy giving tint tickets and speeding tickets to the working class. These clowns would cost them money not make them money. They don’t have money to pay fines. They gotta justify all the gear and new cruisers some how
I agree and i would!
Surprised landowners aren't charged for possession of stolen property.
Yeah, it was a cluster. The woman seen in the video owns the house and his half crazy, she rents out rooms to whomever it seems. The other guy that said he rented a room was all the way crazy.
@@TheRealMrDiGG Wasn't too crazy to go back and warn the thief...
@@TheRealMrDiGG I suppose the danger here is, they know where you live and the layout of your property.
it would be very easy, with all the equipment you have around, to cause some very, extreme damage.
It's almost 'wild west' crap where you have surveillance, armed sentries, and when they return, end the threat.
I have over 30 cams where i live. I haven't called the law YET!!
I recovered 21 out of 30 items. Broken bones? Yeah, stitches, yes, fat lips, black eyes, that's right, 2 per customer. It's funny. You get a rep for broken bones and stitches AND I don't call the cops. I fill up the tank, grab my 6 buddies, beer and we go hunting!!
I am a retired Police Officer with 32 years' service. I have worked in every area of law enforcement, and I have to say this to the Deputy. Sir this was a piss poor effort on your part. I mean damn man at least take some info from those people that live there, write a report and forward it to a detective for possible investigation. It's obvious they are running a theft ring right there; don't you want to shut something like that down in your area? It may be small to you but it's a big deal to the owner of the stuff. You don't always have to have a serial number if the owner can describe the item in detail prior to. I would think the Air tag being present would be enough probable cause. That old man is absolutely part of it, for crying out loud he went around back and warned someone when he saw you pull up. If this were in my state and this were my call, I would have arrested that old guy for Theft by Receiving. Thats his house and he was in possession of stolen property. At least that might make him think twice about allowing those thugs to bring stolen items to his property next time. At the very least write him a Criminal Citation (Summons to court) and write a report. Just because someone is old don't mean they aren't capable of willfully breaking the law. I am sorry but this should have been looked into further. You as the Deputy should have been the one asking all the questions. Since when does law enforcement stand idle and have the citizen conduct his own investigation lol.
Thank you so much for this comment! Unfortunately around here, you pretty much have to do all the work yourself. Hope you have a great day and thanks again!
@@TheRealMrDiGG I would take that video and make an appointment with the Sherrif or someone in charge.
u r in danger, being alone there. pack heat?
Maybe he has connections to the guy who owns the house 😅
The cop's are part of the gang's of the people who go around taking your stuff
you all need to elect a new sheriff.
I vote for Clint Eastwood!
😂😂😂Me too!!!
Sheriff Grady Judd needs more disciples…..
You should file charges for steeling your air tag and your tire, as long as the people there confess to who actually brought it there, the home owner could be charged with receiving stolen merchandise and that may make them roll over on the real thief. Even if it is only a misdemeanor charge if they have prior convictions that could lead to a longer sentence in jail.
Nobody is gonna confess to anything, they are all low life’s
During the depression when Grampa’s neighbour went to church some firewood would go missing .Farmer drilled a hole and put one shotgun shell in a few pieces of wood .To say the least in a couple of days it blew the chimney off .They found out who was stealing wood .
Best story I’ve heard yet!!😂💥. Thanks for sharing
We need to go back to those days. 😂
TnT is is a bigger Bang!🤣🔥
My grandfather told me similar story but the person was taking goods from the house. The rigged the shotgun up to the door
Lol brilliant! JUSTICE!
You were a whole hell of a lot calmer than i would have been. I think I would have blown a gasket if I had seen my stolen stuff at a thief's home. I work hard for my stuff, and I'm sure you do too.
Yeah, I was trying to stay calm and gather more info about the guy who actually came and took the stuff. Thanks for watching!!
Ha I was just thinking the same
Nothing good ever happens when the police are called. Ever. Great video, thanks for a front row seat to a chop shop.
I sure appreciate you watching!
Seems like a cop sanctioned chop shop, that they have no interest in stopping. They could make it real hard for them to keep doing it, but they don't. I know chop shops just pop up in other areas, but giving him much "cost of doing business" they cause legitimate businesses, it would be nice to give them some.
Whatever
This cop is a joke.
20 years ago I just moved into the home I am in now and we had some neighbors down the road who thought they could intimidate us. I worked away quite a bit and they would throw fireworks in the yard etc. Then on Christmas we had our decorations stolen along with other people in the area. My decorations fell apart and it trailed right to their yard along with beer cans. The police could not do anything since there was no evidence at the home just on the dead end road leading there. The other peoples decorations were found later by some hunters all thrown in a little creek. I had some time off and they had never saw me before Then one day they came down the road as I was at the end of my driveway and I had my pew pew on me my hunting pistol a 44 mag super red hawk with a 9 1/2 inch barrel. The boys rolled down their window and jokingly asked what do I shoot with that. I said anyone that pisses me off and enters my yard to steal stuff which includes your dumbasses. Its been 20 years and I never had another problem. Of course my big dogs were also a deterrent.
You get’em Pappy! 😆
😅hell ya brother 😅
Discouraging how awful it is trying to get cops go after the thieves
Right!?
You know it doesn't matter if it runs or not, it's the point of someone stealing from you.
This is true. Thank you for watching
My son has a small farm and his 9 year old grandson hunts for groundhogs. On the land there is an old dirt road with a creek that runs along the road. No one uses this road . He was out one day hunting and stopped and was in the creek like kids do. An old green pickup with 2 guys stopped and asked if he wanted chocolate. He got out of the creek and picked up his shotgun . One of the guys yelled get out of here. He walked to a neighbors house and they called the police. When his dad showed up the policeman you don't have to worry about him talking care of himself. Just teach your kids and grandkids to be careful.
Good lesson!
If the cops would start holding the owner of the property accountable, maybe the thieves would go somewhere else 😡 Make sure you keep your receipts and serial numbers and I love the fact that he put a tag on the item! That’s infuriating!!
We definitely are gonna keep better records from now on!
You're a better man then me. If that was my stuff that house would suddenly catch fire during the next thunder storm.
Karma will take care of them 👍
Possession of stolen property isn’t a crime in that area? Cop refuses to investigate the name of the guy who supposedly sold them the stolen items?
Hopefully this video will help me get more info on the name given…….
I am a Law enforcement officer, if you had an air tag on property you had stolen, and it is on someone else’s property?
Someone is getting arrested for being in possession of stolen goods!
This officer is horrible!!!
There doesn’t have to be a VIN# before you can charge.
This County Sheriff’s Office FAILED YOU!!!
I would have had a search warrant for that property, inside and out.
As well as a search warrant for the property of the Tim guy the tenants mentioned.
This is embarrassing to watch as an officer
@@lifewiththehamptons2191 Question, So if I go on to somebody's property and throw a bunch of air tags on stuff, your saying you will help me drag it out of there?
Wow! Cant believe the cop did jack shit after all that information …
You would have to be knowingly in possession if someone sold it to you and you had no clue that's different
Receiving, etc., stolen goods. A. If any person buys or receives from another person, or aids in concealing, any stolen goods or other thing, knowing the same to have been stolen, he shall be deemed guilty of larceny thereof, and may be proceeded against, although the principal offender is not convicted.
I am also a retired State Trooper. The Deputy should have gotten a warrant.
Agree
That family knows what they are doing. Why would you take the time to put a AirTag and not get serial numbers? Boy, that cop sounded like he could care less. People should get their tax money back. Could have hired mall security for much less.
Mall security LOL
Yea Paul blart 🤔🤔🤣😭
Wow & WTF...?!? Everyone there should've been arrested...!!! Possession of stolen property or dealing in stolen property, or maybe investigate them...! Wow...!?! Thanks, keep up your awesomeness...
Thanks!!
I call bs, the air tag should have been enough to charge them! A real live investigation needs to be done, monitoring the property, what and who comes in and goes out.
The cop obviously knows what's going on and no one seems to want to pursue it. That is the real issue here!
I agree!!
the cop mentioned 40 chainsaws among 'other things'.
He knows exactly who is stealing
I'd suggest he's related to the thief, brother, cousin or 'old school, football buddy'
Why else, as a cop, would you act so ignorant to the evidence right in front of you?
What a useless, waste of space he is
Don't go 1 or 2 mp/h over the sped limit though, he'll be on you faster than a flea on a washed dog or a steak-out cop on a doughnut
I'll take it a step further. After seeing that troopers tats on his arm and his overall look, I'd say he and the thief are in the same 3 letter organization and or the PB's.
"All this stuff right here is stolen. But I can't do anything about it..." WTF is your purpose then? Traffic cop?
Sorry for your loss. I know how it feels, and you feel violated. Keep up the great content though! Take care.
Take pictures of all the serial numbers and keep all the original purchase paperwork. So sad that society has come to this. Thank you for the update. Have a better day tomorrow. Cheers
We usually keep good records of all of our equipment, but these were older and I think got done away with.
@@TheRealMrDiGG I hear that, I have the same issue.
Out here, we are advised to install steel reinforced doors so they aren’t kicked in. It’s a full time job and costly. Depressing.
At 12:22 in the video you can see a person heading for the woods between the shack and the house after the man in the white shirt apparently lets them know the cops are here. I got the distinct sense that old man knows much more than he lets onto...just watch his behavior closely.
Im in agreement with you!
That's a bummer that you can't get them even know you had an air tag. Sorry that you have to go through all that.
Yeah it sucks, it’s unfortunately the world we live in now. I appreciate you watching
When we had tools stolen from a job site and reported it to the cops. But the thief tried selling are tools back to us on the job site and report to the police. They said they couldn’t really do anything. So when he came back with the stolen tools we took them back. Since the police aren’t going to do their job.
Somebody’s gotta do it right !?
Law enforcement needs to make a project out of this property. If no one is on probation, or parole that is a law enforcement failure. None of this is difficult, or all that time consuming. It is called doing your job!
I agree
The man and woman who lives there and owners of property should be held accountable for allowing this to happen. They should have been arrested for possession of stolen. property
They obviously knew what was going on
Appreciate all the comments by retired Law Enforcement ... who have much to say to some in uniform today.
American citizens are getting fed up ...
Women going through this amount of work too.
Sometimes during/after funerals ... on deceased family members properties ...
It’s frustrating!
Arrest the couple for receiving stolen goods since it's on their property. If someone else IS involved, they'll roll on them for a reduced sentence!!
Sadly, even if you caught them with the item in their hands, standing on their property, at most after a year of back and forth through the court system they might wind up with a few days in jail and or a little bit of probation. But if you really want to get even with him, and make sure that they get punished, call the FBI and say that you saw them at the Capitol on January 6th. They'll lock them up as quick as you can imagine, keep him in jail for a couple years until they get their day in court. The FB hired probably even make up some b******* evidence or have one of their confidential informants testify, and convicted of the so-called crime. Government's real big on political persecutions more so than prosecuting actual crimes.
They’ll eat what’s coming to them sooner enough. I appreciate you watching & taking the time to comment!
Somebody in that Sheriff's Dept is being lazy. That deputy is lying when they say nothing can be done. That's bs and he knows those people are stealing.
It’s sad
Thank You For the Update , we Had a same situation where I live air tags and all , but the County Sheriff Said if They Personally didn’t witness the property being delivered to the location they would not act on it , and the city police Didn’t care at all said it would be a county problem !!! Who in Hell Helps Us ??? If we Deal Out Righteousness ourselves ! We Go To Under the Jail !!!
You’re right! Thanks for watching!!
Maybe those people should get charged with receiving stolen property. They would probably give up the thieves.
They kinda did, at least i got a name
I don’t know why UA-cam suggested your videos but I’m so happy they did! I’m so very sorry about your property theft. Truly, because I’ve had so much trouble with theft and our local LEO don’t do anything about it. But like I said I’m happy I found your channel because you are terribly handsome and I can come back and look at you as often as I want. Don’t worry, I’m not a stalker. Just a mature woman who appreciates a good looking man. I’d never leave my area because I love it here and have grandchildren who I love so very much. I hope you’ve found a way to keep your property safe from sticky fingers!
You must be a really good man not to go ballistic on these people
The only ones we talked to were half crazy and not the ones who actually were doing the stealing
That’s because the Bible says revenge belongs to God.
You should press charges on the guy with the white shirt because he went back to the house in the rear and told someone who ran out the back you could see it in the video. these people need to get jobs in prison.
Crazy huh!? Someone else saw that too
Thank you so much Officer for being realistic, however, still patient and compassionate!
Thanks for watching!
Sorry for your loss. Where I live, we lock up things we like/love/need. It’s easier than what you’re doing!
Problem is we have so much equipment everywhere it’s hard to lock up every single thing.
I had a pick up stolen when I was in my early 20's, 40 years later I still despise anyone that steals.
Same
The cop actually saw you take your property off of their property and he did nothing? I would have arrested the property owner. Nobody squirms and screams more than an innocent person being accused. The property owner may even likely hand deliver you the theif and your property that hasn't been sold for crack cocaine.
I don’t know, it’s a messed up situation down there!
Owner was complicit, he notified the douche in the back house that the cops were there and you can see him leaving from the back door, crossing between the houses before he fks off through the bush.
The deputy said the problem himself" we've been there 100 times".
I know, it’s so stupid
@12:20 12:22 you can see that the guy in white notified someone in the house behind the main house. If you look between the houses, you can SEE him leave and go behind the main house.
Yeah someone else said that too, crazy right!?
As a former Auto Theft Det./Supervisor in Pa. , there is more than enough probable cause to lock this place down and get a search warrant for this place and attempt to identify stolen motorized property, which obviously already has happened here, ( cars, trucks, boats Atv's , tractors etc. ) the owners of the property should then be charged with operating a chop shop which in Pa. is a Felony. I'm pretty sure most if not all states have similar law's unfortunately most patrol officers aren't aware of such statues In addition all of the shop tools and equipment should be seized as evidence and later forfeited if the actors are found guilty. In my opinion this is an open and shut case however it appears that the officer isn't interested in getting involved. And by the way this victims stolen property isn't the only stolen property at this location, this place is a potential gold mine for solving cases far and wide. What a shame...
It is a real shame!
my state has STAND your Ground backed up with Castle Doctrine. Hopefully yours does too.
Just keep repeating i feared for my life with a glazed look in your eye, then call your lawyer🤣🤣🤣
lol, its tempting sometimes!
Stealing stuff from your neighbour is bad, but taking a man’s beer, that’s beyond awful
Right?!
I was told this by a police officer. He said there's only one set of numbers you need to have on your equipment. It can be stamped in to any part of the item. The number is your social security number. You can buy a set of harden steel stamp. After stamping the numbers in different places, take pictures. Set this guy up, he will be back, air tags will get the cops with you, that number will get the scum arrested. You should still get the state police involved. They would have taken some one to jail. You had proof it was stolen from you. Something is a little fishy going on here. The local police know and not doing anything.
Love this idea, but then those scumbags will have my Social and probably steal my identity! 😂
My cops say to use your Driver license number. It's something the cops can easily check back to you.
Just out of curiosity, where is all this occurring? Would you like a guarantee that these thieves never steal your property again? Ive dealt with chicken heads several times already. If you'd like to fight fire with fire we can come to some sort of arrangement im sure. But FYI you may want to keep a eye out on your property at night for a while. Now that you've found their place and brought the cops they know where they got the blower from. Dont think they wont retaliate and tear your stuff up or burn it!
I think we’re pretty prepared now
Take the police with you get your stuff
I tried
Keep serial numbers on all of your purchases. This is also important for warranty covered repairs.
Im gonna do better
I found it easy to take pictures with my phone. I then put the pictures into a "important" folder on my phone. Also take pictures of my car license plates. My memory has enough to deal with.😮
Everyone just calm and nonchalant and appreciative Thank You !!! I would have been raising hell. I would be hiding around my equipment and catch the guys myself which would not be good for them !!!. Why bother with air tags.
I got to sleep sometime
That really sucks man. i hate that for you. You should take a day to go around and write down all your serial numbers and get pics of your vin plates. then they will have to charge them. I'm sure they will be back seeing as they got away with it and obviously aren't too afraid of getting caught because they came back multiple times already
Yeah, I am gonna do a better job on the serial numbers!
How frustrating! They need to be fully prosecuted and I don't quite understand why they aren't going to do anything about all this
So frustrating
Try having the property declared a public nuisance by the organized crime unit
Never thought of that!
This may be strange but I really like listening to your voice. I don’t know what it is but it just seems calming to me.🙂
Well thank you ( in a calming voice)
Go after the property owner for having a chop shop full of stolen pieces.
The cop didn’t seem to think we could do anything to them
Small claims Court. Very low bar for proof. I doubt those people have a pot to piss in, but you'll have a judgement to hold in to until they do, if ever.
I see people in the uk talking to the police like its there fault. Your politeness and application of not only the cop's workload but also the situation the people that stole it may be in and may have grown up around frankly made my day i watch active self protection videos from the us and the ease the have to mock the death of a human is shocking to me, if a 17 year old kid grows up around that life i'd rather offer him the opportunity to live a good life than shoot them, the thing everyone doesn't see or comprehend is a life of crime is hard very hard imagine everyone around you even your friends would steal from you or anything else like that. Its about treating people like they belong and when the 17 year old kid you give a chance to hits 40 and lives a good life i can guarantee you he will teach his children the same and would have your back until his last breath then his children would as they would understand both worlds. Thank you for the video.
I really appreciate this comment, thank you!
@@TheRealMrDiGG it was a breath of fresh air for me today watching your video, i have just been ripped off by a customer i spent £1200 and 30 hours fixing his 2019 range rover sport and it turns out he isn't a good guy and is trying to extort me out of more money a real nasty piece of work, left me in all kinds of trouble just before Christmas and if i hadn't of watched your video i would of ended up making it much worse as i was that angry i intended to go and permanently disable his vehicle and i know deep down it wasn't paid for by hard work and he would of came after me. So I'm swallowing my pride and instead of been bitter as i struggle over Christmas with my son i will just use it as leaning tool to make sure i dont do work for anyone who i don't know or hasn't been sent to me by a trusted customer and friend. So thank you again for the video as it really helped me out today. Ian
Police saying they cannot do anything is BS. Start by arresting both home owners. BOTH even the old lady for allowing the thief to use their property. Hold them both in jail as long as you legally can. Make their family so upset over it that they rat on the thief and then BAM you can arrest him. Otherwise Id just take matters into my own hand and since it looks like youre in the country there is lots of places to hide a DB.
Great comment!! Thank you
I live out in the country and a while ago, someone (porch pirate?) was taking stuff out of folks' yards.
When an Amazon delivery of mine showed up as having been delivered, picture and all, then disappeared, I manufactured my own bait box.
No tellin' what was inside THAT one, although I will give you a hint: several notoriously- aggressive venomous creatures.
Suddenly, all that piracy in these parts came to a screaching halt!
Well, thats one way to take care of it lol!
We had a family like that living next to our property in the mountains. When I was a young man their parents were friends of mine and helped me a bunch. When we moved back to the property they constantly stole things from us. Without going into detail we tried the cops and found them to be impotent not doing much of anything. Eventually, I took a more aggressive approach and, I hate to say, threatened them if they didn’t keep their family away from mine. Totally unacceptable nowadays, but it worked. This sparing the Rod crap does not work. These guys including their family, who know exactly what is going on need a blanket party out in the woods. One can only hope they’ll get it from someone some day. Good luck
Absolutely right!
I'm happy for you guys
Thanks Bud!
Sue, the property owner. They are playing dumb. They know what is going on.
Got to , right!?
You gotta watch doing that out in the country because you’re likely to get fed to the hogs. It’s not just something you see in movies. It’s real and I can promise you that.
You’re right!
So lesson learned now you know start taking serial numbers down off all your tools and machines pictures will also help besides airtag’s.🤔
We’ve got a list started
This is what happens when you have a society. There is no consequences to your actions.
Unfortunately
this has motivated me to take good pictures of my belongings, and serial numbers!
Yes, please do!
Im glad i read the comments..im not the only sad about how this all turned out.. id love to say im stunned and confused..only im not. To see you basically only owned an air tag, made me sick.. id love to say i have paperwork and serial numbers on all my stuff, but i dont..well maybe somewhere... those who say you should have may be right but dont live in our world
I’m sure I have them “somewhere”. Thanks for watching!
@@TheRealMrDiGG photos, saved to the computer and saved to a data stick
solid state equipment, even if it goes through the washing machine, the data is still there.
Pictures, or even a walk around short video as in : this is my J Deere tractor, it's yellow and green, the model is ****** the serial no: ********* there are distinguishing marks, etc, etc for each piece of equipment and a full collection of your workshop.
Sure, it might take an hour to inventory your gear, but then it's done.
I have my tools registered, just to be sure,
Pawn brokers must keep records of people who pawn/sell as do scrap metal yards.
Find your gear, call the cops and wait outside. Don't let anyone know why you're there.
Equipment in pawn shops will be returned to you. Scarp yards - maybe, depends what's left.
at the end of the day, you have the 2A, a dose of lead poisoning ens troubles, so I've read
Wow, i just watched your series on this subject. The whole situation sucks but it taught me a couple of things that I need to do. I need to make a photo inventory of my equipment. It needs to include pictures of each piece of equipment, the serial numbes plates, and dates of purchase.
Yes, you will thank yourself later!
Maybe you need to fence in the area and have guard dogs patrolling the fenced in area.
You could set up something tempting to be stolen, but wired with a trip wire or motion detector to alert you about the theft in progress. Fully document that you own the property, and make sure the value is over $1,000, so that it will a felony charge. You could put a hidden tracker on the thing too. Depending on the gun laws in your state, you might be able to protect your property with firearms. If you don't live in a law and order state or city, then the only choices are to accept being a repeated crime victim or vote with your feet, and move to a Red state or Red city.
Good ideas, thanks for watching!
Dogs are very effective way better than calling cops afterwards they stop them beforehand
Mr Digg, youget caught stealing in cards, you get your hand broken, these thieves need the same treatment, maybe they wont steal again, Hard lesson to learn ,but sometimes you need to put your foot down. Luv the air tags ,great invention.great video Diggs. ( Aussie John)....
Aussie John, if we adopted some of these tactics, they would be much much less theft!
You need to put a tag on that cruiser cuz that cop sits in a lot all day doing nothing just like he did nothing for you. Why couldnt you get a ticked off cop to come, gheesh
I know right?
Some people just use their yard as a chop shop and they have no clue whats going on. And even the cops know its a hot spot for stolen property but refuse to do anything? I would leave that town, they condone stealing.
Im afraid its everywhere
One good thing my mom taught me in life was NEVER steal a working woman’s or man’s tools ….. that’s how they feed their family 🙏🏽
Right?!
Too many people get away with theft because of technicalities. Some people need to suffer ramifications that they'll learn from.
youre right! Thanks for watching!!
Reminds me of that well known saying, if the criminal is not behind the wheel, it's just too much effort to investigate
True
That cop is there Kinfolk
You think?
If there is stolen property found on your property can you be charged with possession of stolen property?
Yes, you can be charged with possession of stolen property if stolen property is found on your property.
What is Possession of Stolen Property?
Possession of stolen property is a criminal offense that occurs when a person knowingly receives, possesses, conceals, or retains stolen property. This can include physical possession, control, or dominion over the stolen property.
Elements of Possession of Stolen Property
To prove possession of stolen property, the prosecution must show that:
The property was stolen.
You knew or should have known that the property was stolen.
You received, possessed, concealed, or retained the property.
Defenses to Possession of Stolen Property
There are several defenses that can be used to defend against charges of possession of stolen property, including:
Lack of Knowledge: If you did not know that the property was stolen, you may not be guilty of possession of stolen property.
Lack of Possession: If you did not actually possess the stolen property, you may not be guilty of possession of stolen property.
Innocent Intent: If you had an innocent intent when you took possession of the property, you may not be guilty of possession of stolen property.
Constructive Possession: If you did not physically possess the stolen property but had control over it, you may be guilty of constructive possession.
Penalties for Possession of Stolen Property
The penalties for possession of stolen property vary depending on the jurisdiction and the value of the stolen property. In general, possession of stolen property can be a misdemeanor or a felony offense, punishable by fines and imprisonment.
Conclusion
In summary, if stolen property is found on your property, you can be charged with possession of stolen property. The prosecution must prove that you knew or should have known that the property was stolen and that you received, possessed, concealed, or retained it. There are several defenses that can be used to defend against these charges, including lack of knowledge, lack of possession, innocent intent, and constructive possession.
The law is so crazy
It amazes me how ppl don't keep track of their stuff and keep documentation of anything over $100. Takes 2 minutes when you first get it. Log serial numbers, take a pic. His complacency is what keeps the thieves going. He should be pissed.
I know, i need to be better on record keeping
Yeah, he's the victim of thief, it's not his fault that stuff was stolen, it's the thief's. Would recording that info help? Maybe a little. The leaf blower was completely dismantled, where would have documentation got him?
I can't stand victim blaming.
@@funonoldwheels7150 Weren't blaming the victim. Just generally saying keeping info on your equipment and electronics helps law enforcement catch the suspects. They can enter the item into the system as stolen. If it pops up at a pawn shop or another investigation it'll hit as being stolen. Then cops have another charge to put on the suspect who had the item.
Damn you have patience of a lion stalking prey.. I would be furious not the right way but hard earned money purchase them to be a thief property for free.. WOW.. good luck with future items..
I was trying to stay calm and get information on the dude that actually stole the stuff. It wasn’t easy
SC? freakin hell i thought the law would do alot more than that here.
You would think…..
Elderly folks are not always innocent. In this case they are part of the theft ring going on on their property. Watch the video slowly. At time frame 12:14 grandpa- white shirt fella comes from the tool shed on the right side of the house to tip off someone. At time frame 12:22 if you watch the small gap between the tool shed and house you can see someone fleeing into the woods. Again, this is judging folks. But who allows this sort of mess around the house and not wonder where it all comes from. Grandma and Grandpaw go to sleep at night and wake up with four wheelers and blowers in their yard the next morning? Also, the dogs probably barked all night when the thiefs brought home the loot. Go to sleep grandma, that's just Timmy coming home with some more stolen junk.
Also, the good ole' boy sheriff deputy didn't challenge the grandpaw. He shouldhave done some verbal investigation on the spot. Like, sir, this is your property and you cannot tell me where this stuff come from and who it belongs too? Let me help you remember, turn around and put your hands behind your back!
That whole place reeks of corruption!
Seems like a Neighbors From Hell episode.
A bit surprised air tags were used without some form of motion detect camera systems.
Neighbors from Hell for sure!
Yep hand it over or charged with possession of stolen property. It's simple.
Lazy cops .. 100%
Sad but true
I live in Aiken, and I hate a thief. My camper was stolen. You didn't see a pop-up in their yard, did you?
lol, only pop up was the guy who popped up and ran
Lead will stop that crack problem.
Wish we lived back in the Wild West!
@@TheRealMrDiGG One nice thing about Texas is you can use deadly force to protect and reclaim your property even in situations involving simple theft or criminal mischief. This only applies at night though. This is why we tend to sleep easy, as a majority of us are well armed and only an idiot would try to rob us at night.
Years ago i was talking with some guys in my workshop. The subject of stolen parts came up and one of the older guys said" ive never had anything stolen from that big open shed,right on the road " Nobody said anything because it was his sons who were known as the biggest thieves in the disrict....😮
Oh no!
I can imagine me doing exactly what you (he) did. And here I sit playing woulda-coulda-shoulda. A month of thefts? Now the thief is spooked.
Spray paint / photos / driveway alarm for when the thief is on your property. Yes, interesting. Scrap-yard (with photo proof) and while the yard will play dumb, the cops might be more cooperative. Sorry for your loss
Appreciate the comment and you watching the video! 🍻
Home owner is 100% responsible.
You would think right!?
That cop is probably related to them or the thief!
I dont think so, he just is probably burnt out from dealing with this kind of crap all the time
Well, that was eye-opening. The yard is full of stolen property, and nothing can be done. I'm sorry, but it's called detective work. You have to put in some time. I'm ordering a custom metal stamp right now. Then I'm going out and stamping every piece of metal on everything I own.
Unfortunately it’s what you have to do to try and get back your belongings. The metal stamp is a cool idea!
The cop is on the take. Only explanation for his non concern. Not kidding one bit!
You arent the only one thinking this.......
Should have taken the home owner to jail for receiving stolen property, they would have snitched real quick.
Sad that we’re living among thieves.. and the judicial system just let loose on and on.. With taxpayer money… I despise thieves..
It is sad
You’re a good guy. I would be tempted to leave my phone at home and take a long walk, might just so happen to come across a house that’s on fire. 🔥 😂
Don't be so nice. That cop should have arrested someone! They had your blower, and it was found with the air tag! So what if it's dismantled! You also identified your 4 wheeler there! That should be plenty of evidence of theft! That's crazy that the cop did nothing!!! You should push this. The cop didn't even fill out a report!! 😮
Can’t help it, I’m too nice sometimes
Agree with you guys! Why when the police show up, would you walk away to the rear and then come back? Why would a home owner allow some random guy to bring goods to thier house? I can hear it now. Okay put that leave blower and golf cart over here and put that 4x4 over there. Oh and the tools can go in the shed there". That cop lacks the most basic skills! What happened to the cameras that were set up?
Never got them on the cameras
Cops are not worth calling! Street justice
I agree!
Amazing, I would have applied for a search warrant and searched that complex. I would have recovered everything and everyone's stuff. Absolutely ridiculous that a thief takes what was worked hard for.
It is ridiculous
I cought 3 guys loading up my tools and all the cops did was make them give it back but they refused to make any arrest or even sight them they actually threatened to arrest me because I had their car blocked in with my truck and the cops said if I didn't move my truck and let them out they were going to arrest me and impound my truck off my own property and the cops 5 of them said they would make sure I was held without bale for no less than 90 days
Do what!? That’s crazy
Sounds like Canada. Here the cops want you to leave your keys handy for the thieves to grab. It's easier taking a report over the phone than investigate a thief being assaulted.
Criminals have all the rights. Just doesn't pay to be a good citizen
It sure doesn’t!
